Fabric

Fabric is the CSS toolkit that powers Wealthsimple's front-end design. It's purposefully limited to common components to provide our developers with the most flexibility. It's built with SCSS and available via Bower, so it's easy to include all or part of it within your own project.

Read the Fabric documentation to learn more.

Install

There are three options for installing Fabric on your own project.

Option 1. Install with npm or yarn

If you are using a import- or require- aware javascript bundler like webpack, we recommend installing using npm or yarn:

npm install --save @wealthsimple/fabric

or

yarn add @wealthsimple/fabric

Option 2. Install with Bower

If your project setup isn't capable of processing npm-based modules, we also publish to bower.

First, create a bower.json in your project root directory if you dont have one yet:

{
  "name": "your-project-name",
  "private": true
}

Optionally specify a .bowerrc config file to control the directory where the assets get pulled into:

{
  "directory": "vendor/assets/bower_components"
}

Then, to install the latest version of Fabric, run:

$ bower install --save https://github.com/wealthsimple/fabric.git

To update the package once installed:

$ bower update wealthsimple-fabric

Option 3. Install Minified CSS

The concatenated and minified CSS is available in https://github.com/wealthsimple/fabric/blob/master/css/fabric.css

Note: this is not recommended, as you won't have access to any of the SCSS variables or mixins.

Usage

Once installed with bower, simply @import either the master SCSS file, or the individual files as you need them.

// Example: All of Fabric
@import "wealthsimple-fabric/scss/fabric";

// Example: Individual files
@import "wealthsimple-fabric/scss/variables";
@import "wealthsimple-fabric/scss/mixins";
@import "wealthsimple-fabric/scss/base";

Fonts

Since font installation may vary based on the asset compilation framework you're using (e.g. Sprockets for Rails, Grunt for Ghost.org), Fabric does not include @font-face definitions. You must include these yourself.

Example below. Note: for Sprockets-based compilation, you'll want to replace url with font-url.

// Regular
@font-face {
  font-family: "FuturaPT";
  src: url("/fonts/FuturaPT-Book.eot");
  src: url("/fonts/FuturaPT-Book.eot?#iefix") format("embedded-opentype"), url("/fonts/FuturaPT-Book.woff2")
      format("woff2"), url("/fonts/FuturaPT-Book.woff") format("woff"), url("/fonts/FuturaPT-Book.ttf")
      format("truetype");
}

// Bold
@font-face {
  font-family: "FuturaPT";
  src: url("/fonts/FuturaPT-Heavy.eot");
  src: url("/fonts/FuturaPT-Heavy.eot?#iefix") format("embedded-opentype"), url("/fonts/FuturaPT-Heavy.woff2")
      format("woff2"), url("/fonts/FuturaPT-Heavy.woff") format("woff"), url("/fonts/FuturaPT-Heavy.ttf")
      format("truetype");
  font-weight: 700;
}

Running locally and making changes

  • Grunt is used for SCSS compliation, vendor prefixing, CSS reporting, and publishing the documentation to GitHub Pages.
  • The docs are written in Markdown and compiled to HTML by Jekyll, a static site generator.

First-time setup

To get this setup working locally, you must first have Node.JS and Ruby installed.

Next, install dependencies with the following commands:

bundle install
npm install
npm install -g grunt-cli

Then, you may have to open a new Terminal window or run source ~/.bash_profile to have access to the new grunt and jekyll binaries.

Running locally

  1. Make sure dependencies are installed as described in "First-time setup"
  2. Run grunt watch to have the CSS recompiled when any file in scss is changed
  3. Boot up a Jekyll server with bundle exec jekyll server
  4. Open http://localhost:4000 to view the documentation locally

Publishing changes

The public documentation is hosted on GitHub pages. To push new changes, first compile the CSS:

$ grunt

Prepare a PR with a new version number that follows semantic versioning - this is really important!

Build the latest website by running (it will create _site directory):

$ bundle exec jekyll server

Commit all changes, then push the changes to gh-pages branch with:

$ grunt publish

Changes should be live in around 30 seconds.

Creating a new release

  • Go to the 'releases' tab in github.
  • Hit the 'draft new release button'. Use the master branch only please. This does two things:
    • it prompts you to enter some info about what's in the new release. Be descriptive! This serves as our changelog, and your colleagues will thank you. Screenshots of new controls/features are handy too.
    • It creates the git tag that bower will use.

For npm you need to manually publish. Go to your terminal, rebase latest master, and run:

$ npm login
$ npm publish

You will need to be added to our organization to publish the package.
